Here’s an interesting article that claims that the simple act of chewing gum increases the mind’s ability to concentrate and to retain knowledge.
Research has shown that chewing does indeed increase our ability to concentrate and to retain what we’ve learned. In fact, studies indicate that, for both kids and adults, mental tasks are completed up to 20% more effectively when we chew gum.
Cool! I chew gum almost every day. But sometimes I get a headache if I chew it too long… and what does THAT do to my mental effectiveness?
